The Illustration Grad's To-Do List

An editorial illustration for one of my blog posts for Manning Productions. The post is a personal reflection on all that is on the plate of newly graduated illustration majors, where we are now, and the uncertain road ahead.

The image depicts a graduating art student, at commencement, intently writing/drawing in her sketchbook surrounded by nonchalant fellow graduates.

The trick with this one is that I only had about 8 hours to throw it together, so it was a bit of an exercise in how fast I can go from concept to something-colored!
